The Farmer's Daughter

Chapt.14

Landon's P.O.V

It has been about a month since the incident with Lily and her parents. She has started her senior year, and is living with me and my mom. After the last incounter with her family, I decided to fix things with my mom. I have been applying for jobs all over town, anything is better than nothing. I just want to make a living for myself, but most importantly for Lily. She is my world, and she deserves the world. Sighing, I ran my hands down my face, frustrated. I heard the door open and close, and seconds later Lily emerged. Just seeing her put a huge smile on my face. She dropped her bag and sat in my lap, laying her head on my chest. I engulfed her in my arms, feeling content.

"How was school?" I questioned, looking up at her. She sighed and clasped our hands together, messing with them.

"O.K. There is drama going around about the preacher's daughter is rebelling, blah blah." She mumbled, but I could tell she was putting up a front. Trying to show me that it did not bother her, but I knew her better than that, and I knew that the comments were hurting her.

"Don't listen to them baby, they are just trying to create drama and not focus on their lives, becuase they are having a hard time in theirs. Just don't listen and brush their comments off." I spoke, she looked up at me smiling, she sighed and kissed my forehead.

"How did I get so lucky?" She whispered, I rolled my eyes, she did this everyday.

"The feeling is mutual." I spoke capturing her lips with mine, she wrapped her arms around my neck, I picked her up and took her to the couch, she wrapped her legs around my waist. She grabbed the hair at the nape of my neck tugging on it. I groaned into the kiss, she squirmed on my lap, making my friend a little excited. She broke the kiss, breathless. She kissed my cheek, then my chin. I grabbed her face between my hands, and rubbed her cheeks.

"We have to stop." I sighed, staring into her eyes, she gave me a confused look.

"What is the matter, am I doing something wrong. " She asked scared, becoming self concsious.

"No No, you are absolutely perfect, I am just enjoying this a little to much. " I mumbled embarrassed, she looked confused and I mumbled " Hormones." She looked confused, but then looked down, and it clicked. She made an O shape with her mouth, and blushed.

"Sorry!" She squeaked hoping of my lap, I laughed at her reaction, but pulled her back over.

"It is fine, I just dont want to loose control," I spoke she nodded understanding my reasons.

"Well while you take care of .. that. I am going to my piano house, in the woods. I will be back in an hour or so." She pecked me on the lips, and bounced out of the room. I groaned, she was going to be the death of me. I could not wait to marry her, and start a family. I shook my head smiling.

Lily's P.O.V

The way my hands fly over the keys, the way the keys produce such melacholy music. I was lost in my playing, when I heard the door open, and there stood my grandmother, my best friend.

"Grammy, Oh how I have missed you." I cried, wrapping my arms around her delicate frame.

"Oh Lily, how have you been sweet pea? " She questioned, wobbling over to a chair. I held her hand helping her down.

"I have been O.K. I am living with Landon and his mother. I have started my senior year, and I am starting a job at the local diner soon. How about you grammy, how is Travis and Mama? " I asked enthusiastically. She sighed patting my hand.

"Your mother misses you like, crazy as do the rest of us. Travis is working on the farm, taking over for your father, since he is retiring from the farming buissness and focusing solely on the church. We all want you to come back darling." She smiled down at me, I nodded. Oh how I want to go back to my room, where I would wake up to the rooster, and the smell of Mama's bacon and special pancakes.

"Oh how I wish I could come home grammy, but Papa is furious with me, and to be honest I am furious with him. He will not listen to me. Nothing happened, Landon was so upset that night, and I just held him, as he held me, and we fell asleep. He is being pazzo If you ask me." I spoke in frustration, my Itialian side coming out. Grammy taught me all the Italian she knows, as she learned from he Italian mother.

"Your father is just worried about losing his little girl. Don't get me wrong he had no right to act like that, I believe you when you say nothing happened, and so should he, but as you said he is being pazzo." She smiled having her Italian accent come through. I sighed I missed having these conversations with her. I don't know what I will do when, the Lord decides to take her away from me. I am not naive, she is getting older and weaker.

"How is that young gun of yours?"She winked, I blushed and moved my arms around in exsasperation

"Oh grammy he is absoultely wonderful. I love him. I love him so much. I know he is the one for me." I spoke with a huge smile on my face, she cupped my cheek. I put my hand over hers, leaning my head into her hand.

"I see how he makes you. You are absoultely glowing, talking about him. If you ask me what you should do. I say if he your father doesn't come to his senses soon, go and elope with Landon and start on my great grand babies." She spoke, smiling down at me. I gasped and gently touched her arm

"Grammy ! " I spoke shocked. Elope. Grand babies.

"Can you blame me darling. I want to see atleast one grandbaby before I leave this earth for good. " She spoke certaintly, with her hands in her lap, and he hed held high. I sighed , I hated it when she talked about dying.

"O.K. I will let Landon know of your plans for us." I smiled and winked at her.. She laughed and stood up slowly.

"I best be getting back, I am going to the church for the ladies group meeting tonight. You come back soon alright.. I Love you sweet pea." She spoke walking to the door, she kissed me on the cheek, and then left.

"I love you too Grammy." I yelled, making sure she heard me. I sighed going back to the piano and started messing around with keys, until I started on a new melody. I was going to write a song for Landon, as he does to me. I smiled, thinking of the two songs he wrote for me. Oh how I love that man.
